Article Synopsis
- Current methods for detecting early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are not very effective, but extracellular vesicles (EVs) show potential as biomarkers for early detection.
- This study developed an EV-based assay to identify specific surface protein markers and create an HCC EV ECG score, which helped differentiate early-stage HCC from cirrhosis in participants.
- The assay demonstrated high accuracy in testing, with a receiver operating characteristic area of 0.95 in the training cohort and 0.93 in the validation cohort, suggesting it could improve current HCC surveillance methods and patient outcomes.*
